About Autonomous

We started with a simple belief: office products should be smarter. That turned into standing desks, ergonomic chairs and backyard pods, now loved by 1M+ engineers and 100k+ startups. Everything is designed and engineered in Saigon, then shipped worldwide from NYC, SF and Shenzhen.

Today we're building the next chapter: AI-powered devices and smart hardware, designed by the same team.

What you'll be building

Real products, on shelves, with your schematics inside:

• Intern 2 — local AI agent hardware. Raspberry Pi 5 inside, runs OpenClaw + Hermes. A desk companion that actually works for you.
• Thinking Desk — reads the air you work in: CO2, VOC, noise, temperature. Claude Code session live on the keypad.
• Autonomous Lamp (coming soon) — a personal AI computer with eyes, memory, and opinions.
• Soul & Autonomous Key — small NFC companions. No battery, no setup, no subscription.
• Hydrate — water-tracking coaster, works with any cup you own.
• Personal AI Rig & EdgeAI — run AI on your own GPUs, up to 8× RTX 5090.
• Autonomous Desk Pro — C-frame, dual motor, lifts 330 lbs under 30 dB. Anti-collision, cable management built in.
• WorkPod, StudioPod, MetroPod — a real office in the backyard. 102 sq ft, no permits, pre-wired, set up in 1–2 days.

What you'll do

• Design PCBs, circuits and power systems for AI devices
• Write firmware on ESP32, STM32, Nordic
• Work side by side with Industrial Designers and the AI team, from concept to mass production
• Prototype, test, fix, ship
• Source components and optimize designs for manufacturing

You'll fit if you have

• 2+ years in PCB design and embedded systems, with products that actually shipped
• Altium Designer or KiCad
• C/C++, and a solid grip on analog and digital circuits
• Hands-on with a soldering iron, an oscilloscope and a logic analyzer
• BS in Electrical Engineering or something close
• Nice to have: Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, LoRa, battery management, Python, Git, basic 3D modeling
• You use AI tools in your daily work and you move quickly

Benefits

• Social insurance, health insurance and private health insurance
• 13th month salary and year-end bonus based on real contribution
• Lunch provided daily
• Flexible working hours
• AI Learning Budget for tools, courses and subscriptions
• Quarterly Impact Awards for top contributors
